Type: ChardonnayPrincipal varietal(s): 100% Chardonnay

Gorgeous Chardonnay, like a top-flight Chablis or "true" Sonoma Coast Chardonnay. Very pure and elegant, creamy mouth feel, crisp and full of energy. Flavors of apple juice, lemon curd, ripe buttery peach, subtle toasty lees and sweet spice. Refreshingly light on the attack but full of clean, crunchy Chardonnay fruit. Good buy - I truly wish I'd bought two more cases of these great Saint-Verans! - HK 2014-09-28
